I made this for a friend that hosted a party last night. It is a candle set of three, all from Michael's ($3, $2, and $1 white candles). I rolled the poinsetta wheel on tissue paper and melted it on the candles. I rolled the bag and the tissue paper for the bag as well.

It's super easy. The hard part is getting everything out! Make sure that you have something under the tissue paper when you roll your wheel over it. The ink goes through the tissue.
Steps: 1) Cut tissue paper to fit candle (shorter than the candle and goes all the way around). 2) Wheel or stamp tissue paper. 3) Put tissue paper on candle and cover with a larger (than the candle) piece of wax paper. Pull wax paper tightly. 4) Using heat gun, melt tissue paper into candle holding the ends of the wax paper so that your hands don't burn. 5) I also roll the candle as I heat it up to keep the shape (the wax paper helps here too). Voila!
